Carbon isotopic composition of methane in Ordovician gas reservoir in the Changqing Gasfield can reflect the dominance of Upper Paleozoic coal-type gas despite its high mature degree. The 12C-rich ethane in the Ordovician reservoir (δ13C2 < - 29‰), known as a marker as oil-type gas, does not indicate the Ordovician marine carbonate as main source rock, it is because of the relative less ethane content in coal-type gas than in oil-typed gas due to generation and migration. The way of Upper Paleozoic coal-type gas migrating into the Ordovician reservoir is widely through the unconformity instead of only through the erosion groove in the weathering crust.
